Education and outreach Our projects involves a
wide spectrum of techniques, so that younger
scientists can easily participate. Both
undergraduate and graduate students, as well as
summer interns form a core component of our
research. In addition, two postdocs are supported
in part by this grant. While junior researchers
often discover new phenomena through computer
simulations of simple models, full-scale and
analytic studies are implemented by the more
senior scientists. The work outlined here was
carried out by Jiajia Dong, who just received her
PhD in May and will join the faculty of Hamline
University in August.
